It does. And Baroque-Urban, just a helpful hint here, but go back and read the last 5 pages or so. There's probably 20 threads in those pages alone by people asking "what is the best hopper?" "what is the best barrel"? "what should I put on my Tippmann"?. You'll find a lot of the information you're asking already answered in previous threads. ------------- Ref: I want a nice clean game player: but it's paintball! |

Low price upgrades: Bigshot or Teardrop barrel, DOP Drop Forward, Shockfly bolt, Double trigger, DOP X-core Chamber (needs vert. adapter.). New tubing and elbows are in order. Same deal with loctite or Teflon tape. This'll give you alot of help for around 120 dogs($). Go to Countypaintball.com, Actionvillage.com, or 888paintball.com for these items Otherwise Sky is tha limit for a unlimited budget. ------------- Gun Info: 98C E-Pro ACT 14in Stiffi Offset Mount RedDot 45mmScope Shocktech ShockFlyBolt RocketCock II Cyclone Feed Dog Leg All TechT Cyclone upgrades 4 guns and counting!! |

Dont go crazy upgrading your gun so much. Theres really not much you need, it already preforms very well. J&J Ceramic or Lapco Bigshot are your best average barrel choices. 12v Veiwloader Revolutions are great hoppers, cheap too. Double triggers are kind of pointless, especialy if your on a budget. RTs are pretty cheap and really increase your firepower. DONT GET NEW INTERNAL PARTS. -------------

what's better teardrop or lapcos bigshot barrel? I have heard more
about bigshot but im not sure :/ and from what i hear the longer the
barrel the better accuracy? so 12 inch better then 14inch? |

That is not true at all. Barrel length is only preferance. Over 14in you loose velocity because of it. Teardrops arnt bad, but I suggest the BigShot. The length is up to you. I personaly like 12in better, 14in seems just a bit awkward. -------------

I would just start off with a new barrel, hopper and maybe 2x trigger. Don't go overboard yet though because if you decide that you like your 98c with just a barrel and 2x trigger and you already bought another $200 in ups then you just wasted $ that's not going to improve you game mcuh. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |
